Garbage collection yields numerous software engineering benefits, but its quantitative impact on performance remains elusive. One can compare the cost of conservative garbage col...
Proofs of equalities may be built from assumptions using proof rules for reflexivity, symmetry, and transitivity. Reflexivity is an axiom proving x=x for any x; symmetry is a 1-p...
Abstract. Recent research has suggested that there is no general similarity measure, which can be applied on arbitrary databases without any parameterization. Hence, the optimal co...
Hardware simulation of channel codes offers the potential of improving code evaluation speed by orders of magnitude over workstation- or PC-based simulation. We describe a hardwar...
